Wakizashi Sword

The Wakizashi was the back up sword carried by the Samurai along with the Katana. The Wakizashi is a similar to the Katana sword in shape, however it is a bit shorter and can be used with 1 or 2 hands.

The Wakizashiwas used in close quarters, or when the Samurai lost his Katana in battle, some Samurai mastered the art of dual wielding the Katana and Wakizashi togeter.

Katana and Wakizashi Daisho

During feudal Japan only the Samurai were allowed to carry the Katana and Wakizashi together, this was referred to as Daisho, and was an official sign that the wearer of those swords is a Samurai.

The Katana was considered as the soul of the Samurai, and was treated with highest respect.

The Daisho was term literally means “big little”.a Katana is the big or long sword and the shorter sword is the Wakizashi.

The Japanese term for the Wakizashi blade literally means side inserted sword. Wakizashi blade tends to measure between 30 to 60 centimeters.

A Wakizashi was used primarily for close quarters and indoor fighting or to behead opponents on the battlefield. At times, the Wakizashi was used to commit seppuku (ritual suicide).

The Wakizashi was allowed to be carried by the Chonin class, which included merchants and used for protection when travelling due to the risk of encountering bandits. Wakizashi are worn on the left side secured to the waist using a sash or Uwa-obi or himo.

More About the Tanto Blade

The Tanto blade can trace its origin during the Heian period. Tanto was mainly used as a weapon However because it’s blade was so aesthetically pleasing it has evolved to include ornamental designs., Hira and Uchi-Sori Tanto became the more popular style.

The Tanto was mainly carried by Samurai, commoners did not generally wear it, in fact, before the Katana and Wakizashi Daisho, Samurai carried a Tachi swordand Tanto.

The Tanto is used for Tantojutsu which is a traditional martial arts. In form it resembles a dagger. This must be one of the reasons why the Tanto has find its way into modern tactical knives in the West especially in the 1980s.
